vina veja park

this park is the third park in a little cluster, joining eaton sunnyslope and gwinn to round out this little park-heavy corner of pasadena. aside from the powerlines, this is really a cool space with the funky pavilion design and wide open spaces. a birthday party was in full swing while we were there to take this photo.

the mosaic signs at this park are slightly smaller and appear to have been installed at a different time than all the others. anyone have any insight to that curious detail?

from the city website:

"Vina Veja Park is located at 3026 East Orange Grove Boulevard, near Eaton Sunnyslope Park. Hours of operation are from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm. The size of the park is 7.5 acres. This park provides a large picnic shelter; 3 additional picnic areas; and a dog park divided into two sections for large dogs and small dogs."
